Handloading Ammo to Beat the Supply Dilemma

By Glen Wunderlich

The ongoing ammunition shortage has many shooters rethinking their supply strategies.  Much like finding a generator in the aftermath of a hurricane, finding ammo or handloading components in today’s marketplace continues to be sporadic and expensive at best. People are settling on whatever they can get their hands on.  Forward-thinking handloaders on the other hand are weathering the storm much better, because of the inherent nature of loading their own.

A recent poll from www.ShooterSurvey.com indicates that the art of handloading may be on the rise.  Although cartridge component availability remains scarce today, many do-it-yourselfers have been able to dodge supply issues with components from their shelves.  Read more

The Straight Scoop on Ammo Shortages

Brownells Gunsmith Corner – March 2013

Shortages – They’re Not A Conspiracy By Jim Shepherd

Wherever you’re accustomed to getting your shooting news these days, chances are you’re hearing – repeatedly – that the industry is suffering from chronic shortages of guns, ammunition, and components, most particularly those designed to be used on the modern sporting rifle.

Over the past six weeks, I’ve been across the country, and I can tell you from talking with retailers in big cities like Phoenix, Atlanta and Houston to small gun shops in Tennessee, Kentucky, Arkansas, Mississippi, Arizona, Georgia and Texas that the shortages are real. I’ve also spoken at length with manufacturers, and they’re all telling me the same thing: the shortages aren’t driven by a government conspiracy or hoarding. They’re being driven by demand. And a lot of that demand is fueled by new shooters, despite some politicians who would like you to believe that the number of U.S. households with guns is dropping. Read more
